• Renner Haulage is increasing its vehicle fleet by 25% to cope with a planned increase in business. Fiona Renner, managing director of the Belford, Northumberland-based family business says there are a lot of expansion possibilities, particularly in Tyneside, where the number of companies has boomed in recent years.
"Haulage rates are vent competitive — but the only way forward is to work the vehicles you have even harder, and increase the fleet, on the principle of high-volume, low profit margins."
Renner Haulage has 12 Seddon Atkinson vehicles, a 15tonner, a 20-tonner and the rest are artics. Its main business involves transporting grain and other agricultural products such as fertiliser. It also handles some industrial work.
